Supabase Wrappers: A Framework for Building Postgres Foreign Data Wrappers

So I could implement one myself for arbitrary REST APIs?

I can't wait for somebody offering a generator, where you plug in your API, it pulls and parses the JSON, then you can select the fields you want and it generates the wrapper. (Alternatively, for put/post you could supply your own JSON).

Practically like some low/no code tools like Appsmith/Budibase and the likes already do today.

Sadly I lack the necessary skills and more important the time to dive into that.

Yes, I guess it would be possible to works with generic REST APIs - ones that all conform to a similar model.

Probably on this one the wrapper could use an OpenAPI spec
